Jenn’s Bridal Session @ The Graystone Inn, Wilmington, NC {Wilmington, NC, Photographer}

It wont be very often that I’ll have the opportunity to take a dear friends bridal portraits, but back in July I got to do just that.  Jenn had asked me back when Ben and herself first got engaged if I’d be willing to fly back and shoot her bridal portraits (and of course I said yes).  As the time got closer to our session we batted back and forth location ideas… I think we both would have loved to do the session outdoors, but considering it was July and ridiculously hot we opted for a session at The Graystone Inn, which is located in downtown Wilmington.  I don’t think we could have picked a better location, it was perfect for Jenn’s dress and the mood she was going for with her bridal portraits.  She was absolutely stunning in her dress.  Since this blog is up, it means that Jenn and Ben tied the knot on Saturday and I am sooo happy for the two of them and I hope y’all are having a blast in Mexico.  I hope you enjoy her bridal portraits…  Check back in a few weeks b/c I’ll have photos up that I snapped at the wedding…

If you’re planning a wedding weekend in Highlands, North Carolina, spring is one of the most beautiful times to gather your favorite people in the mountains. The waterfalls are full, the wildflowers are blooming, and the golden hour light over these ridgelines is the kind of thing that makes everyone reach for their phone (even […]

(If my dream clients wrote a blog post, it might sound like this. Not a real couple, but a very real reflection of the kind of experience I aim to give.) We weren’t just looking for a photographer. We were looking for someone we could trust—someone who would make our wedding feel like us. That […]
